A' mhisg a chuir an Nollaig oirnn

A' mhisg a chuir an Nollaig oirnn The spree we had at Christmas
Cha robh dìth dollaidh oirnn We didn't lack for liquor to make us drunk
A' mhisg a chuir an Nollaig oirnn The spree we had at Christmas
Cha chuir i tuilleadh call oirnn Won't cause us any more loss
A' mhisg a chuir an Nollaig oirnn The spree we had at Christmas
Cha robh dìth dollaidh oirnn We didn't lack for liquor to make us drunk
A' mhisg a chuir an Nollaig oirnn The spree we had at Christmas
Cha chuir i tuilleadh call oirnn Won't cause us any more loss
   
Shaoghail, a shaoghail duibh World, black world
Cò chuir an dollaich oirnn? Who made us drunk?
A shaoghail, a shaoghail duibh Oh world, black world
Cò ghabhadh dall sinn? Who would have us as drunk as we were?
A shaoghail, a shaoghail duibh Oh world, black world
Cò chuir an dollaich oirnn? Who made us so drunk?
A' mhisg a chuir an Nollaig oirnn The spree we had at Christmas
Cha chuir i tuilleadh call oirnn Won't cause us any more loss
